Steve Posted October 22, 2005 Report Posted October 22, 2005 Even though it was not mentioned in Pulp Hero as a gaming resource, Deadlands seems to be a pretty cool example of a "Weird Western" campaign suitable for the genre. Here are a couple of threads I found on it. Deadlands: Hell on Earth..uh....HERO Deadlands Hero Quote
dbsousa Posted October 22, 2005 Report Posted October 22, 2005 Re: Pulp Western=Deadlands? I've always wanted to run a western game at the level of Wild, Wild, West (The TV show) or The Adventures of Briscoe County Jr.. No divergent history, but lots of pulp science, mysticism, and two-gun action. My favorite campaign ideas include: 1862-Carson City Nevada, around the time when the editor of the local paper was Samuel L. Clemens. Players would be siblings, each with a unique genre gimmick. 1874-P.T. Barnum's "Congress of Wonders". A travelling circus introducing wondrous men and women of extraordinary talents and abilities. Players would be circus folk to be called "Superheroes" in the USA. Quote
